<p>[QUOTE="fretboard, post: 943133, member: 19765"]Yes some of the Norfed dollars are worth big dollars for sure! I think Bernard Von NotHaus started minting them in 1998 and if you have one of the first year dollars they go for well over $500 last time I checked. I have a 2003 half ounce somewhere around I bought on ebay. The whole Federal Gov't raid and later underground workings of the Norfed dollar, Freedom dollar, Liberty dollar etc has cost Mr NotHaus some big dollars and basically robbed him of his livleyhood, at least in a public format. It's quite a complicated case and at first hinged on the use of the word "dollar", then the use of gold and silver certificates of actual gold and silver that was stored at a warehouse but didn't include the SEC, EFT or any of the goings on that are required to sell such commodity certificates. Someone else who knows more about this subject can correct me if I'm wrong but that's how I understand the whole fiasco. Whether NotHaus did something illegal or not is debatable, I only wish I had a handful of the 1998 dollars!!</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberty_Dollar#Federal_Government_response" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberty_Dollar#Federal_Government_response" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberty_Dollar#Federal_Government_response</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
